We want to embrace our faces so that every company can build their own AI, leveraging open models and open source technology. Our goal is to build open platforms and make it easy for data scientists, machine learning engineers and developers to access the latest models in our community and use them within the platform of their choice.
Today we are excited to announce our strategic partnership with Google Cloud to democratize outstanding machine learning. Working with Google beyond Open Science, Open Source, Cloud and Hardware, we’ll enable businesses to build their own AI using the latest open models from Hugging Face and the latest cloud and hardware features from Google Cloud.
Open Science Collaboration
From the original transformers to vision transformers, Google has published some of the most important contributions to opening AI research, urging the AI community to change one model at a time.
Our strategic partnerships amplify the efforts led by Google, embracing your face, and help make the latest AI research more accessible to the community.
Open Source Collaboration
From Tensorflow to Jax, Google has contributed to some of the most important open source tools, allowing researchers and data scientists to build their own AI models and create a noble cycle of model performance improvement through rapid iteration.
Our strategic partnership accelerates our collaboration and makes the latest AI innovations accessible easily by hugging the open source library of faces, no matter which framework you use.
Google Cloud Customer Collaboration
Today, hundreds of thousands of hugging face users are active monthly on Google Cloud, downloading models and creating generated AI applications.
Our strategic partnership enables Google Cloud customers to easily train and deploy face models within Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) and Vertex AI. Customers will benefit from unique hardware features available on Google Cloud, including TPU instances, A3 VMS, A3 VMS with NVIDIA H100 tensor core GPUs, and C3 VM with Intel Sapphire Rapid CPUs.
Collaboration to hug facehub users
Millions of researchers, data scientists, developers and AI enthusiasts rely on a hugging face hub each month to easily create and experience the latest AI models and applications.
The results of Open Science, Open Source and Google Cloud collaborations will be available to embrace Face Hub users and enable new experiences throughout 2024. AI Builder can accelerate applications with a TPU that embraces the face space. Organizations can leverage Google Cloud accounts to easily manage their Enterprise Hub subscription usage and billing.
What’s next?
I can’t wait to make these new experiences available. Stay tuned for announcements this quarter! For now, we leave you with a word from our CEO:
“Google Cloud and Hugging Face share the vision of making generated AI more accessible and impactful for developers. This partnership will allow Hugging Face developers to access Google Cloud’s dedicated AI platform and Vertex AI.
“This new partnership will allow Face users and Google Cloud customers to easily embrace the latest open models, significantly improving developers’ ability to build AI models by leveraging Google Cloud’s optimized AI infrastructure and tools, including Vertex AI and TPUs.
